Rick and Morty Renewed For 70 More Episodes

Rick and Morty is officially coming back, and it'll be returning with many new episodes.

Justin Roiland revealed on Twitter with a sketch of the titular duo, confirming that Rick and Morty will be back for 70 more episodes. Adult Swim confirmed the news, retweeting Roiland's announcement and simply saying "What Justin said."

Co-creator Dan Harmon shared a hilarious Instagram video announcing him and Roiland have to get back to work to accompany Roiland's episode confirmation. Neither Roiland nor Harmon revealed when exactly the new episodes and the fourth season will premiere, however, and there is no news on the cadence of these episodes' release.

However, Harmon shared a more optimistic update in April, saying he expected Rick and Morty to return sooner rather than later. It's still not known what the exact problem with the contract talks was, but everything appears to have been cleared up to allow new episodes to move forward.
